Abstract
The invention provides a method for refining a mapped surface mesh of a cardiac chamber. The method includes obtaining a mapped surface mesh of the cardiac chamber anatomy, wherein the mapped surface mesh comprises a central region representing a cardiac chamber and an outer region representing a peripheral cardiac structure connected to the cardiac chamber, and wherein the mapped surface mesh comprises a first view of an anatomical landmark within the cardiac chamber, and obtaining image data of a cardiac chamber anatomy of a subject. The central region of the mapped surface mesh is deformed based on a first segmentation algorithm configured according to one or more predetermined shape-constraints and the outer region of the mapped surface mesh is deformed based on a second segmentation algorithm configured according to the image data, thereby generating a deformed outer region. The deformed central region and the deformed outer region are then combined, thereby generating a refined mapped surface mesh.
